Tsurinoya RS-1092 Fishing Pliers – 77g Stainless Steel | 18cm | Hook Remover & Line Cutter

Tsurinoya RS-1092 Fishing Pliers – 77g | 18cm | Stainless Steel

The Tsurinoya RS-1092 is a 77g, 18cm stainless steel multifunctional fishing pliers designed for light game and estuary fishing applications. At 77g the RS-1092 is notably lightweight for a full-function fishing pliers — reducing hand fatigue over long sessions where the tool is repeatedly pulled from a holster or lanyard for hook removal, split ring work, and line cutting — while the stainless steel construction provides the corrosion resistance required for regular saltwater estuary and inshore use. The 18cm overall length provides adequate leverage for hook removal from larger fish and split ring opening without being oversized for the compact tackle boxes and holsters used in light game and finesse fishing.

• Hook removal – deep hook extraction without hand contact — the RS-1092 pliers jaw is designed to grip and extract hooks from the jaw, mouth, or throat of fish without requiring the angler to put fingers near the hook point or near the teeth and gill plates of toothy or spiny species; the jaw geometry allows the pliers to be inserted into the mouth of the fish and rotated to back the hook out along its entry path, which is the most efficient hook removal method for barbless or lightly barbed hooks and causes the least damage to the fish for those practicing catch-and-release; for deeply swallowed hooks the extended reach of the 18cm pliers provides access that fingers alone cannot safely achieve
• Split ring tool – lure maintenance and hook replacement — the RS-1092 includes a split ring opening tip that allows the angler to open split rings on lures for hook replacement, hook size adjustment, or adding/removing assist hooks and swivels; the ability to work split rings without a dedicated split ring tool — or without using fingernails that can be damaged on tight-gauge rings — makes the RS-1092 a practical lure maintenance tool on the water; replacing treble hooks on worn or damaged lures extends the productive life of the lure without requiring the rings to be cut off
• Integrated line cutter – clean cuts on braid and mono — the RS-1092 includes an integrated cutting blade designed to cut fishing line cleanly; a clean cut on braid or fluorocarbon is important for knot strength — a frayed or compressed cut creates an uneven tag end that can introduce a stress point at the knot or cause the tag to slip back through the knot under load; a dedicated cutting blade on the pliers produces a cleaner cut than scissors or a knife on thin PE braid, and avoids the nail-cutting method that damages the blade and produces a crushed rather than clean tag end
• 77g ultralight weight – reduced hand fatigue — at 77g the RS-1092 is significantly lighter than most full-function stainless fishing pliers, which typically weigh between 120g and 200g; the weight reduction is meaningful in sessions where the pliers are used frequently — bream and estuary perch soft plastic fishing can involve dozens of hook removals per session, and a heavy pliers pulled repeatedly from a hip holster accumulates significant wrist and forearm fatigue over a 4–5 hour session; the 77g RS-1092 is compact enough to clip to a lanyard or slide into a chest pack pocket without adding noticeable weight to the angler’s carry
• Stainless steel construction – saltwater corrosion resistance — the RS-1092 is built from stainless steel to resist the accelerated corrosion that regular saltwater and estuary use causes on carbon steel or uncoated alloy tools; stainless steel maintains its surface finish, joint smoothness, and cutting blade sharpness over a longer service life in marine environments than non-stainless alternatives; rinse with fresh water after each saltwater session and periodically apply a light lubricant to the joint pivot to maintain smooth operation
• 18cm compact length – balanced reach and portability — the 18cm overall length is sized for the estuary and light inshore fishing context where a compact, portable tool is preferred over a longer heavy-duty model; 18cm provides sufficient jaw reach for hook removal from most estuary and light inshore species including bream, flathead, trevally, and tailor, while remaining short enough to fit in standard fishing pliers holsters and chest pack pockets used in kayak, wading, and rock fishing scenarios
